The advantage of such a technically and economically feasible system is designed to use the photoelectric effect to generate electricity and indirect solar heat to drive membrane distillation process in overcoming the unstable supply of solar radiation from sunrise to sunset. The modified solar-driven membrane distillation seawater desalination system in the present study is consisted of (1) solar water heaters; (2) Solar photovoltaic cells; (3) hot water storage devices; (4) heat exchangers; (5) other auxiliary equipment such as pump; (6) membrane distillation units (include three different devices of modified direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD), modified Air gap membrane distillation (AGMD), hollow fiber membranes for air gap membrane distillation modules. The study on MD discusses the design parameters (flow pattern, channel thickness, aspect ratio, roughness, spacer-filled channel, gas bubbling, packing arrangements) and operating parameters (inlet temperature and flow rate) to obtain the maximum pure water productivity with less energy consumption. Meanwhile, Aspen Custom Molder (ACM) software is introduced in this design process to achieve the optimal design arrangement of membrane distillation configurations. The purposes of this study are (1) to use ACM software in simulating membrane distillation modules in order to obtain optimal operating conditions for the pure water productivity; (2) to design and simulate alternative combinations of three modules(flat-plat DCMD, flat-plat AGMD, hollow fiber membranes of AGMD) in optimizing the pure water productivity with conducting both mathematical modeling and experimental studies; (3) to establish the solar thermal and electricity integration system in developing the high performance on the modified solar-driven membrane distillation seawater desalination system.[[notice]]補正完
